Doomsday is nearly upon us according to Mayans, glaciers, and the economic forecasters. What will you be doing these last days? Will you:

A. Pine away the precious moments and turn into a couch potato?

B. Panic and sell off all your property just in case credit rolls over into the life ahead?

C. Spend every night dancing 'til dawn?

D. OR screw them naysayers, enter the Final Round of the Showcase, and earn your chance for the ArtSlant Prize, a trip to South Beach to finally work on that ozone tan you've always dreamt of, and of course show your work to adoring fans at Aqua Art Miami?

More on these fine folk in the next mailer, but for now, give some love to the following Round 6 entrants! Win or lose, Rock n' Roll!

There are 3 ways to win for each participating artist:

SHOWCASE WINNER- In each of our 6 rounds, the ArtSlant Curation Team selects about 1/4 of the best artists entered in that round to be awarded Showcase Winner status. Being a Showcase Winner means you can move into the jury selection process for Juried Select Winner status. Showcase winners are given maximum exposure on ArtSlant through our Homepage display, our Artshow display and in our e-Publications.

JURIED SELECT WINNER- Our Review Panel of international galleries, curators and artists will go through the Profiles of each Showcase Winning artist. From this review, they will select the top 10 Juried Select artists in each round. These 10 artists will automatically go into our year-end voting for the ArtSlant Prize exhibition and cash awards.

NEW - One Juried Select artist in each round will be granted a $250 cash award.

ARTSLANT PRIZE- Three artists will be selected as our final ArtSlant Prize winners from the pool of 60 Juried Select artists that have been assembled during the year. Our ArtSlant Prize winning artists will receive:

1. Exhibition: In a top art city or art fair

2. Cash Prizes: Over $20,000 in cash and cash equivalents

3. Exhibition Stipend: Cover shipping & other exhibition costs

4. Purchase Awards: The chance to be part of the ArtSlant Emerging Collection
